Emission reading for 1JZ

[Gavatron]

Yeah, that I'm not even taking mine to Regency cos they are fucks.

For emissions test they will bang your car on their dyno with a gas analyser up it's arse.

yeahh i have click on that but it says something like i have to rep other people before i rep that person.

Have to rep 10 other people before you can rep the same person again.

SHIT!!!

Ok now your scaring me here Gavan lol

hrmm well i give it a shot. i do whatever it takes to get the fucker registed to the car or fix whatever they will pick on lol.

LET THE GAME BEGIN haha

There are plenty of guys from SA who have done a 1J soarer conversion so ask them what it was like.

Yeah, my references are based off a NSW engineering report but there shouldnt be too much of an issue and especially if you have a standard motor etc, etc, i dont see why it couldnt be ruled the same.

By the way, how did you do the conversion - front cut or package?

[Gavatron]

Plenty of guys have done it, but I don't know one who has had it engineered.

Dodgy buggers...

[Hengsta]

Conversion was done with a half cut.

Nope no need for engineered. i got a statement of requirements here

[Gavatron]

What does it say on your statement of requirements? Just emissions test? No brake test, lane change, chassis rigidity test?

[big_zop]

Conversion was done with a half cut.

With that, then you should have everything you need if you havent got rid of it.

Forgot to mention that factory mounts, ect would be required but not a problem here (just adding in case some one else reads this).

That was often debated here in NSW for those wanting to do a 'factory style' engine conversion (xA70 Supra - 7M to 1JZ) since there is a clause stating that 'engine changes that were factory options or do not exceed a certain capacity increase are not required to be engineered' (capacity increase based upon chassis style/weight/forced induction or NA). The other problem with this is that a xZ20 soarer never came with a 1JZ option but many argue that they share the same chassis as the xA70 but i have never seen this. And for a 1G to 1J conversion there too big a capacity increase (not sure if yours was a 7M to begin with).

[Hengsta]

ohk here we go.

Statement of requirements says that..

Work is carried out excatly as specified to accepted automotive engeneering and trade practices.

The vechile meets all other appropriate requirements

That the exhaust system emits NOT more then 2.5 percent carbon monoxide and 250 per million of hydrocarbons at engine idle speed.

that the engine fitted is tested with an exhaust gas analyser at recommended idle speed and the attacted "Vehicle Emission Test Report" form is completed and supplied to the inspector at the time of inspection.

That all emission control devices are fitted and operational.

That the engine valve timing and induction system is NOT altered from that of the standard 2.5 ltr Toyota 1JZGTE turbocharged engine.

That the vehicle exhaust noise is test at time of inspection (90db)

That the engine is fitted with the original manufactors injection system, injectors and ECU system. turbos must be retained and located in their original position and the orginal induction system.

It says nothing at all about i have do brakes upgrade and shit like that weird though.

Mine was converted from 1G to 1J weird

Hengsta, sounds pretty much the same as what I had to do for my MX73 Cressida.
For the emissions you just need to take it to someone with a "4 gas analyser," & like gav says it just involves sticking a sensor in the tailpipe & taking a sample of the idle emissions, which will also show your o2 sensor is working.
Apart from that, aftermarket front mount should be fine (mine was- tell them a factory cooler doesn't exist for that car or isn't available or whatever), apparently you can get away with open pods in SA (but put a proper box in there anyway), and they will most likely just want to see the factory ECU plugged in.
Apart from that as long as it's tidy & you don't come across as too much of a hoon or a wanker you should be ok.
It sounds like you got the same person write your statement of requirements as me, some of them ask for stupid stuff like chassis rigidity & lane change tests done by an engineer, for which the SA engineers charge STUPID amounts of money.

Like the fucking cockhead who wrote my statement. Chassis rigidity, lane change test and brake test. And they wonder why people don't bother making their car legal. I know I won;t be with that statement.

Lol!!!!!!!!

[Hengsta]

lol well i guess im really lucky i didnt get the other dude to write my statement of requirements.

Hrmm now i have to find a stock filter box, i sold all my 1G ones lol

[bungs]

Yeah I got the same dickhead who wrote Gav's statement. Chassis stiffness testing + brake testing pfft good on ya. Here I am trying to get my car legal and they want to send me to an engineer to pay 3k for some bs report.
